I honestly don’t have the answer for you on the coiled cable. I don’t trust myself enough for all of that haha.

I have to say, Vilebloom is a timeless set. Im just not a big fan of the taller profiles unfortunately. It would most definitely look good on your board though :)

Maybe a pen or such to be able to type with space suit gloves or just to stick it to surfaces or arms for holding it in place. The ISS is basically a hughe velcro pad.

Edit: Found a picture of one in space before velcro. Source is this reddit post.

Edit2: Here is one in space with velcro pads being used to hold it in place.

I thought it looked like a Grid.

Sure enough: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_Compass?wprov=sfla1

Got to use one, and type on it, once. The display was beautiful for its time.

Strange that info on the key switches used could be lost to time. But the best I could find was only that other similar looking Grid hardware used Micro Switch ST key switches:
